Fuse Fangoria Chainsaw Horror Awards - The Nominees

The first annual Fuse Fangoria Chainsaw Awards are underway with the announcement of the nominees, and there are some surprises, and some not so surprising. In case you didn't know the awards are all for horror films.

Amazingly the leaders with the most nominees are Hostel and...wait for it...Snakes on a Plane?! Following these two closely are a couple of seriously good horrors, The Hills Have Eyes and The Descent, but then there are films such as Final Destination 3 and King Kong?! Bit mixed up if you ask me.

Oh this is definitely a strong four horse race here, I'd struggle between the the first four, but Wolf Creek (review) was really horrific around a couple of scenes, so perhaps that's the weakest. I'm going to find it difficult between the other three...but for Horror I'll say The Hills Have Eyes (review).

See I would say what is King Kong doing here, are you telling me that film was a horror? I would say Jackson, but not for this film here...What about Hills Have Eyes? He's a great hero once he gets going.

So thinking about horror films...I've done this the wrong way round because I've written my comments from the bottom up, and it's here that I've realised that there are so many appearances from nominees that just can't be described as horror. King Kong? You'll see what I mean as you head down the list...Anyway, I've no idea, I haven't counted those in Slither....have you?

LINE THAT KILLED (Best one-liner)
SNAKES ON A PLANE/Neville Flynn (Samuel L. Jackson): "I've had it with these motherf**king snakes on this motherf**king plane!"
FINAL DESTINATION 3/Ashlynn Halperin (Crystal Lowe): "Look, girls with asses like mine, don't talk to guys with faces like yours."
WOLF CREEK/Mick Taylor (John Jarratt): "I'm going to do something now they used to do in Vietnam. It's called making a head on a stick."
THE DEVIL'S REJECTS/Otis B. Driftwood (Bill Moseley): "Boy, the next words out of your mouth better be some brilliant f**kin' Mark Twain shit, 'cause it's definitely getting chiseled on your tombstone."
HOSTEL/Paxton (Jay Hernandez): "I hope bestiality is legal in Amsterdam, because that girl's a f**kin' hog."

I am going to say without a doubt it's the line from Wolf Creek. Keep that horror aspect in mind when you think of this, remember it's horror films.
